Quote by Martin Luther King Jr.

When God wants to speak and deal with us, he does not avail himself of an angel but of parents, or the pastor, or of our neighbor.

When God wants to speak and deal with us, he does not avail

Summary

This quote suggests that when God wants to communicate or guide us, he doesn't necessarily send angels or divine beings, but rather uses ordinary people in our lives such as parents, pastors, or neighbors to convey his messages. It implies that divine intervention can often come through the actions, words, or influence of familiar individuals in our everyday lives. This reminds us to pay attention to those around us, as they may serve as vessels for God's guidance and teachings.

Some comfort it would have been, could I, like a Faust, have fancied myself tempted and tormented of the Devil; for a Hell, as I imagine, without Life, though only Diabolic Life, were more frightful: but in our age of Downpulling and Disbelief, the very Devil has been pulled down, you cannot so much as believe in a Devil. To me the Universe was all void of Life, of Purpose, of Volition, even of Hostility: it was one huge, dead, immeasurable Steam-engine, rolling on, in its dead indifference, to grind me limb from limb.
